How AI-driven digital ecosystems can improve sustainability

ERP sustainability software mostly focuses on data collection and reporting requirements of environmental, safety and governance (ESG) policies and typically isn't intended to control the business processes that impact the physical environment. But other digital technology has been used for years to monitor and optimize resource use. Now IoT sensors are increasingly paired with digital twins and AI, and linked with ERP and other enterprise applications, to form a complete digital ecosystem for environmental sustainability.            In this episode, we explore digital sustainability technologies, their benefits and challenges, and whether more use of the technology will be a net benefit for addressing climate change. Featuring: Peter Weckesser, Chief Digital Officer, Schneider Electric In today's episode, we'll also cover: New capabilities enabled by generative and agentic AI. The sustainability technologies that have the quickest ROI. Schneider Electric's work to optimize resource use in AI data centers.
